The FlashVideo CCK Plugin

Posted July 2nd, 2007 by travist

Previous to version 2.2, the FlashVideo module aimed to create a very simple user interface for uploading videos by placing all video conversion configuration within the FlashVideo Settings, rather than within the actual node creation. Although this did allow for easy video submittal, it lacked in the ability to allow for node specific video conversion configurations. What this means is that in order for you to specify any conversion configurations, you must do so by changing the configurations within the FlashVideo Settings and NOT when you actually submit your new node. The FlashVideo CCK Plugin aims to solve this problem by using the power of the Content Construction Kit to define standard fields that will be used to override each of these default FlashVideo Settings when you submit or update each node! Listed below is just a sample of what this new feature allows you to do...

With the FlashVideo CCK Plugin, you can now...

Allow your users to customize how many seconds to delay before taking the image snapshot of their video when they submit their video.
Regenerate your video using different conversion commands, or even a different conversion application besides ffmpeg without changing the whole node type and then uploading again.
Regenerate your thumbnail after realizing that the snap-shot provided is not good enough.

Below are the fields that you can create using CCK to override the FlashVideo functionality. Please note that each parameter MUST be labeled the same as below, otherwise the FlashVideo Module will just ignore it. Also, for all these parameters, the same format should be used as in the FlashVideo Settings. Please Note: You must enable this module in the Modules Section in order to utilize this plugin.

Parameter Name	Type	Description
flashvideo_regen_thumb	Integer	Used to allow the node editor to regenerate the thumbnail after an edit.
flashvideo_regen_video	Integer	Used to allow the node editor to regenerate the video after an edit.
flashvideo_output_dir	Text	Used to command the output directory. This is relative to the system files directory.
flashvideo_cmd_path	Text	Used to specify the CWD path to the conversion utility executable. Be sure to include the executable in the path. Example /usr/bin/ffmpeg
flashvideo_video_args	Text	The arguments given to the conversion utility executable to generate a video. The same format should be used as in the FlashVideo Settings.
flashvideo_thumb_args	Text	The arguments given to the conversion utility executable to generate a thumbnail. The same format should be used as in the FlashVideo Settings.
flashvideo_thumbsize	Text	The thumbnail size specified in the following format "WIDTH x HEIGHT". Example 130x100
flashvideo_thumbwidth	Integer	The integer representation of the thumbnail width.
flashvideo_thumbheight	Integer	The integer representation of the thumbnail height.
flashvideo_thumbtime	Text	The amount of time to delay before taking a snapshot of the video. Denoted as "00:00:00"
flashvideo_thumbsecs	Integer	The amount of time in seconds to delay before taking a snapshot of the video.
flashvideo_thumbext	Text	The extension of the output thumbnail. Example: For JPG's this would be jpg
flashvideo_videoext	Text	The extension of the output video. Example: For output FLV's, this would be flv
flashvideo_videomime	Text	The mime type of the output video.

After you have created these custom CCK fields for your node type, you will then have complete power over the FlashVideo Conversion routine during node insertions and updates! Enjoy the new enhancements!
